*Non-GAAP Financial Measure.

"Eastern’s second-quarter performance reflects our focus on organically growing both banking and fee-based businesses and consistently returning capital to shareholders," said Denis Sheahan, Chief Executive Officer. "Strong Commercial & Industrial lending results, partially offset by headwinds from Commercial Real Estate payoffs, drove a linked quarter increase in total loans. We continue to benefit from talent added in recent years and our relationship-driven model. Customers remain resilient, as Commercial loan pipelines finished June at a record quarter-end level of nearly $1 billion. Deposit balances grew meaningfully during the quarter with a modest rise in costs. While the deposit environment is highly competitive, we are committed to balancing growth with margin performance. Momentum in our Wealth business continued as assets increased to another record high and fees had strong growth year-over-year. We are encouraged by the strengthening partnership between our Wealth and Banking businesses, which continues to create more new business opportunities. Our comprehensive, solutions-oriented approach to wealth management is resonating with clients, reinforcing our value proposition. Finally, we are grateful for our customers, colleagues, and community partners whose trust and support position us for further growth in the markets we serve."

David Rosato, Chief Financial Officer, added, "Operating net income increased 20% linked quarter, generating an operating return on average tangible common equity of 15.3% and annualized growth in tangible book value per share of 7%. We are pleased with our financial performance, which was highlighted by positive operating leverage, driven by growth in both net interest income and fee revenues combined with lower expenses, resulting in an operating efficiency ratio of 49%. Net interest income benefited from 3 basis points of margin expansion as higher asset yields more than offset increased funding costs. Fee revenue growth was strong and diversified, with notable increases in Wealth Management fees and interest rate swap income. Asset quality remains excellent, credit trends are positive, and as expected, non-performing loans declined for the second consecutive quarter following the HarborOne merger. In addition, we continued to return a significant amount of capital to shareholders during the quarter, while the Board’s approval of a new 5% share repurchase program underscores confidence in the Company’s long-term intrinsic value."

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income was $251.9 million, an increase of $7.3 million from the first quarter.

Net interest income included net discount accretion of $19.7 million, compared to $19.5 million in the prior quarter. Net discount accretion contributed 28 basis points to the net interest margin on an FTE basis, consistent with the prior quarter.

The net interest margin on an FTE basis increased 3 basis points to 3.66%, due to higher asset yields, partially offset by increased funding costs.

The yield on total interest-earning assets was up 4 basis points to 5.05%, primarily due to higher loan and securities yields.

The cost of total interest-bearing liabilities increased 2 basis points to 2.01%, due to modestly higher deposit costs, primarily in money market accounts.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income was $57.6 million, an increase of $14.0 million from the first quarter. The current quarter included a non-operating loss of $0.3 million, compared to a loss of $1.5 million in the prior quarter.

On an operating basis, noninterest income of $57.9 million increased $12.8 million. The increase was primarily driven by the following:

Income on investments for employee retirement benefits of $7.0 million due to strong equity market performance, compared to a loss of $1.9 million in the prior quarter. This $8.9 million increase in noninterest income was partially offset by a $3.4 million increase in related benefit costs reported in noninterest expense.

Investment advisory fees increased $1.4 million to $19.7 million, primarily driven by higher Wealth assets and seasonal tax preparation fees.

Interest rate swap income increased $1.0 million to $2.0 million, due to higher loan volume.

Miscellaneous income and fees increased $0.7 million to $9.8 million, primarily attributable to an increase in gain on sale of commercial loans.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense was $167.9 million, a decrease of $30.7 million from the first quarter, primarily driven by lower non-operating and operating costs.

Non-operating noninterest expense of $1.6 million decreased $29.2 million, mostly due to lower merger-related costs.

On an operating basis, noninterest expense of $166.4 million decreased $1.5 million. The current quarter benefited from cost synergies achieved following the HarborOne core system conversion in February.

Salaries and employee benefits decreased $5.1 million to $97.0 million.

Occupancy and equipment decreased $0.9 to $13.2 million.

These improvements in operating noninterest expense were partially offset by the following:

Professional services increased $2.3 million, primarily related to shareholder advisory fees.

Other operating expense increased $1.6 million, primarily driven by a higher provision for unfunded commitments due to growth in off balance sheet commitments.

BALANCE SHEET

Total assets were $31,142 million at June 30, 2026, an increase of $509 million from March 31, 2026.

Loans totaled $23,713 million, an increase of $325 million, or 1.4%, primarily due to strong Commercial and Industrial lending results, partially offset by Commercial Real Estate payoffs.

Securities were $4,812 million, an increase of $239 million.

Cash and equivalents were $256 million, a decrease of $75 million.

Deposits totaled $25,919 million, an increase of $814 million or 3.2%, primarily due to seasonal municipal inflows and broad-based growth across business lines.

Book value per share and tangible book value per share ended the quarter at $18.72 and $13.13, respectively.

Please refer to Appendix D for a roll-forward of tangible shareholders’ equity.

ASSET QUALITY

Non-performing loans (NPLs) improved, as expected, for the second consecutive quarter following the HarborOne merger. NPLs totaled $109.4 million, or 0.47% of total loans for the current quarter, compared to $137.7 million, or 0.60% of total loans, at March 31, 2026.

Total net charge-offs were $9.8 million, or 0.17% of average total loans, compared to $9.7 million, or 0.17% of average total loans in the prior quarter.

Provision for loan losses totaled $6.8 million compared to $5.8 million in the prior quarter.

The allowance for loan losses was $325.4 million, or 1.40% of total loans, compared to $327.9 million, or 1.43% of total loans, at March 31, 2026.

DIVIDENDS AND SHARE REPURCHASES

The Company repurchased 3.6 million shares of common stock during the second quarter at a weighted average price of $20.03, for an aggregate purchase price of $72.7 million. As of quarter-end, 1.3 million shares remained in the current share repurchase program. The Company also paid $33.1 million in cash dividends during the second quarter.

The Company’s Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program of up to 11.35 million shares, or 5% of common stock outstanding. The repurchase program expires on December 31, 2027.

In addition, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.15 per common share, which will be payable on September 22, 2026 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on September 8, 2026.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

*Denotes a non-GAAP financial measure used in the press release.

A non-GAAP financial measure is defined as a numerical measure of the Company’s historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash flows that excludes (or includes) amounts, or is subject to adjustments that have the effect of excluding (or including) amounts that are included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") in the Company’s statement of income, balance sheet or statement of cash flows (or equivalent statements).

The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, which management uses to evaluate the Company’s performance, and which exclude the effects of certain transactions that management believes are unrelated to its core business and are therefore not necessarily indicative of its current performance or financial position. Management believes excluding these items facilitates greater visibility for investors into the Company’s core business as well as underlying trends that may, to some extent, be obscured by inclusion of such items in the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

There are items in the Company’s financial statements that impact its financial results, but which management believes are unrelated to the Company’s core business. Accordingly, the Company presents noninterest income on an operating basis, total operating revenue, noninterest expense on an operating basis, operating net income, operating earnings per share, operating return on average assets, operating return on average shareholders’ equity, operating return on average tangible shareholders’ equity (discussed further below), and the operating efficiency ratio. Each of these figures excludes the impact of such applicable items because management believes such exclusion can provide greater visibility into the Company’s core business and underlying trends. Such items that management does not consider to be core to the Company’s business include (i) gains and losses on sales of securities available for sale, net, (ii) gains and losses on the sale of other assets, (iii) impairment charges on tax credit investments and associated tax credit benefits, (iv) other real estate owned ("OREO") gains (losses), (v) merger and acquisition expenses, (vi) certain discrete tax items, and (vii) expenses associated with staffing reorganization. Return on average tangible shareholders’ equity, operating return on average tangible shareholders’ equity as well as the operating efficiency ratio also further exclude the effect of amortization of intangible assets.

Management also presents tangible assets, tangible shareholders’ equity, average tangible shareholders’ equity, tangible book value per share, the ratio of tangible shareholders’ equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible shareholders’ equity, and operating return on average shareholders’ equity (discussed further above), each of which excludes the impact of goodwill and other intangible assets and in the case of tangible net income (loss), return on average tangible shareholders’ equity and operating return on average tangible shareholders’ equity excludes the after-tax impact of amortization of intangible assets, as management believes these financial measures provide investors with the ability to further assess the Company’s performance, identify trends in its core business and provide a comparison of its capital adequacy to other companies. The Company includes the tangible ratios because management believes that investors may find it useful to have access to the same analytical tools used by management to assess performance and identify trends.

These non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release should not be considered an alternative or substitute for financial results or measures determined in accordance with GAAP or as an indication of the Company’s cash flows from operating activities, a measure of its liquidity position or an indication of funds available for its cash needs. An item which management considers to be non-core and excludes when computing these non-GAAP measures can be of substantial importance to the Company’s results for any particular period. In addition, management’s methodology for calculating non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the methodologies employed by other banking companies to calculate the same or similar performance measures, and accordingly, the Company’s reported non-GAAP financial measures may not be comparable to the same or similar performance measures reported by other banking companies. Please refer to Appendices A-D for reconciliations of the Company's GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures in this press release.
